Our device health team uses this\naccess to investigate potential health issues with your tech.\n\n 1. Create a user in Okta for Expel.\n\n * Select Directory and People.\n\n * Under People select Add person.\n\n * User type: User\n\n * First name: Expel\n\n * Last name: SOC\n\n * Username: soc+<Your_Organization_Name>@expel.io\n\n### Tip\n\nYes, the \"+\" sign is part of the email address, and it's important. Click here\nto find out why.\n\n * Primary email: same as username\n\n * Password: set by user\n\n * Select Send user activation email now.\n\n * Click Save.\n\n 2. Notify your customer success engineer that the registration email is sent.\n\n## Step 2: Generate API credentials\n\nTo integrate the technology with Workbench, we need to create secure\ncredentials to the API.\n\n 1. Sign into your Okta organization as a user with Read-Only Admin privileges. API tokens have the same permissions as the user who creates them, and if the user permissions change, the API token permissions also change.\n\n * Okta permissions table:\n\nhttps://help.okta.com/oie/en-us/Content/Topics/Security/administrators-admin-\ncomparison.htm\n\n 2. Open the API page.\n\n * If you use the Developer Console, select Tokens from the API menu.\n\n * If you use the Administrator Console (Classic UI), select API from the Security menu, and then select Tokens.\n\n 3. Click Create Token.\n\n 4. Name your token ExpelAPI and click Create Token.\n\n### Note\n\nMake note of your API token, as you only see it 1 time.\n\n 5. Collect your Okta URL (also called an Okta domain).\n\n * Sign in to your Okta organization with your administrator account.\n\n * Look for the Okta domain in the upper right corner of the dashboard.\n\n## Step 3: Configure the technology in Workbench\n\nNow that we have the correct access configured and noted the credentials, we\ncan integrate your tech with Workbench.\n\n 1. Log into https://workbench.expel.io.\n\n 2. Navigate to Settings > Security Devices.\n\n 3. At the top of the page, click Add New Device.\n\n 4. Search for and select Okta.\n\n![Screen Shot 2021-07-16 at 6.18.35\nPM.png](https://support.expel.io/hc/article_attachments/13874872663699/uuid-7adcac13-7d2e-2755-68ec-f04a2c05a797.png)\n\n * Complete all fields using the credentials and information you collected in Step 1 and Step 2.\n\n 5.
